The next time I go to town, I will try to find the obit on Amanda. If I find it, do you want a copy? The library charges 15 cents a copy. Let me know and you will need to send me a stamped self addressed envelope and the cost of the copy. Amanda must have died outside Henderson Co. as she is not listed in the Henderson Co. deaths. There is an Amanda listed in Vital Statics, however, but the death date is March 14, 1933. You have the burial date as April 14, 1933. Is this the same one? How old would your Amanda be - this one is listed as 90 years old. Let me know what you want.
